Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
Sometimes saving a TIFF works. Stretch is checked and the TIFF looks perfect, exactly like the FITS final. Then sometimes it does not. The TIFF is overexposed (or Blackness is gone, don't know which).
Very frustrating. I could easily be doing something wrong. However I have been able to save good TIFF's and view with no problem. At least sometimes it works.
Version APP 1.082, same computer Windows 10.
Thanks
OK my bad! I realize that TIFFs are created with ICC profiles. My belief was that the viewer recognized ICC profiles. It did not.
Windows viewer does. XNViewer does. FastRaw does (If properly set) and I am sure numerous other viewers.Â
ICC profile recognition is that part I understood but was missing.Â
